Pretty much everything from WOTC. I’m planning to arrange everything by quality and slowly sell off. It usually takes 3-5 mint sets (or more) to get a PSA 10 set. Many times there will be played - excellent - NM holos in the Mint lots. I sent a fellow collector 300-400 holos about a year ago. I’ve accumulated a decent bit again. My priority is to move more PSA cards before spending too much time on the loose holos. Some PSA cards I have 3-4 copies of in a particular grade, set and edition.

The problem I personally see is PSA cards don’t seem to sell. People like Hisoka are selling PSA 9’s of tons of cards whether it be holos from Legendary Collection, holo’s from the Ex Era or newer b&w/xy Ex and most are selling for $5-$15 each in PSA 9 form. That’s a HUGE loss. I couldn’t ever do that. I grade my duplicates for two reasons. 1). I want a PSA-10 in my Collection. 2). I want to sell off the duplicate 9’s, ect for a profit.

This is mainly with English cards. But the demand for English PSA Graded cards that aren’t PSA-10 aren’t VERY HIGH… :confused:

In SouthEastern Wi myself. So not to far from Michigan. Other than having a Lake in the way… :blush:

I break even to make a slight profit with my 9s. What you don’t see is how much I’ve paid for complete sets, packs boxes. yoube said in your videos how much you think it’s worth but most 9s aren’t going to sell for that much. I’ve been very lucky with mu grading where I sell of the 9s and that’s actually profit even if the individual card was a loss.

I paid 1050 for a complete skyridge set. I got 250 from a guy for the rev holo c/UC some rare holos and rare rev holos. I sold the psa 10 charizard for 850. Celebi for 325 to 375. 175 for Crobat and umbreon for 150. I’ve sold a few of the 10s as well but I’ve more than broke even from what the set plus grading fees cost. I still have 15-20 psa 10s left and 20+ psa 9s. If I auction them I’ll have made over 1,000 profit.

That’s how many of my transactions look and why I auction off the 9s. I can put that money back inyo buying something else. I will admit I have probably lost money on a good number of transactions (I spemt in the 10s of thousands last 2 years) because i have kept a lot of cards for myself. I still make a good amount of money.
